DÜRR NDT Celebrates 20 Years Excellence in Industrial X-ray Built on 60 Years X-ray Experience

14. Apr 2026 /

DÜRR NDT was founded in 2006 as a subsidiary of Dürr Dental SE, whose expertise in X-ray technology dates back to 1966. This means that a total of 60 years of experience in X-ray technology underpins DÜRR NDT’s current developments. DÜRR NDT leverages this solid X-ray know-how to develop state-of-the-art digital technologies for non-destructive testing (NDT).

Bellows Systems Enhances its NDT Capabilities with Advanced Digital Radiography

05. Mar 2026 /

Bellows Systems has taken a significant step toward quality and innovation with the introduction of state-of-the-art digital radiography into its non-destructive testing (NDT) portfolio. The DRC 2430 digital X-ray detector and the D-Tect X software ensure improved accuracy by providing superior image resolution, enabling precise evaluation of weld discontinuities as required by AWS specifications.

DÜRR NDT Introduces Mid-Sized Digital X-ray Detector Optimized for Inspections with Isotopes

09. Dec 2025 /

With an active area of 233 mm x 291 mm, the D-DR 2430 NDT offers a medium size that is ideal for most radiographic testing tasks. What makes it perfect for use with gamma sources is the gadolinium oxysulfide (GOS) Plus scintillator. The Plus scintillator was specially developed for applications requiring maximum sensitivity to high-energy and hard radiation.

Computed Radiography vs Direct Digital Radiography

Computed Radiography vs Digital Detector Arrays in NDT

DÜRR NDT

18. Mar 2025 /

Learn more about the two main technologies Computed Radiography (CR) and Direct Digital Radiography (DR) in 2D digital X-ray. Discover the strengths of both to select the right technology to get the best results for the specific application.

Metallic screens gamma computed radiography

Investigation of the effect of metallic screens on image quality in gamma computed radiography

Nick D‘Ademo, DÜRR NDT

15. Nov 2018 /

The role of metallic screens in computed radiography for controlling scattered radiation is very well-known. This paper extends this topic further and quantitatively investigates how image quality in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and basic spatial resolution (SRb) is influenced by metallic screens when Iridium-192 is used as the radiation source.

Practical guideline for digital radiographic testing of welds according to ISO 17636-2

Uli Pöhler, DÜRR NDT; Steve Jelfs, DÜRR NDT

06. Sep 2017 /

As standards become increasingly important in radiographic testing, knowing how to properly apply these standards in real-world applications is now more crucial than ever. Learn how to apply the ISO 17636-2 standard using a steel weld plate as an example and shorten your time to a high-quality image.
